I thought the purpose of Wikibooks was to create original, freely 
licensed (FDL) textbooks.

If annotated public domain works are within this mission, then great, 
start putting in them books! But it's a bit of a surprise to me, and 
probably to many others. Perhaps we need a clearer WikiMedia Project Map
